  What I got from the Darklighter plot is that...

I wonder if his assignment to Fiona, an immortal flame-keeping witch might point to Harry possibly being a ‘limited edition whitelighter’. Made to deal with more powerful witches like Fiona and the Charmed Ones

That’s a good point. 

14, How do you feel about will they/won’t they?

I think will they/won’t they can be fun under certain circumstances, which include a) being well-written, b) the characters really having that chemistry, c) real stakes keeping them apart, and d) a time limit. It’s really only good for a specific amount of time - drawing it out is painful and poor writing and shows a real lack of trust in your own writing, your characters, and your audience.

22. Which of your ships have the best chemistry?

Danny/Rusty from the Ocean’s movies. I mean. It’s one thing for a couple to finish each other’s sentences and a whole ‘nother level when they don’t even need to speak.

38. Do you like and use ship names?

The last thing Johnny expected to see when he entered Penelope and Annie’s apartment was the pair of them throwing, actually throwing, streamers across everything and anything.

“Uh, hi?” he said coming inside and smiling when Penelope turned to him (because he always smiled when he saw her, he couldn’t help himself). 

“Johnny!” she shouted happily and she flew across the room to him and at the last minute he braced himself as she launched herself into his body.  “You’re here! You can reach the ceiling fans!”

“I can?” he asked (still fricking smiling, Christ, this woman) as he pressed a kiss to her upturned lips where he tasted...sugar.  And cola.  “How many sodas have you had today?”

“A LOT,” Annie called out as she tried to get a green streamer to drape artfully over Vern the fern and Sheldon the spider plant.  “Did you know that caffeine helps with creativity?”

“Is that what it does?” he said as he looked down at Penelope who just grinned.

“It does,” she said firmly.

“It’s also going to cause a hell of a headache later,” he said brushing a lock of hair off her forehead.

“That’s later,” she said. “Now I need you to help us tie the red streamers to the ceiling fan.”

“Of course, you do,” he said chuckling.  “Why not one of each color, that way it makes a rainbow when you turn it on?”

Penelope froze and gazed up at him.  “Oh. My. Gosh!  Annie!  A rainbow!”

“Sold!” Annie shouted throwing an orange streamer over the chessboard.

  Considering the fact that we learned last ep that...

I wonder what the darklighter’s feelings were on the Callaghan sisters.

That’s a good question.

My initial guess is that Dark!Harry would be somewhat conflicted about them. 

Perhaps he would start off liking Fiona better since she was anti-Elders and he identifies with that. But then she also turned out to be controlling and manipulative, just like the Elders, so his feelings would change.

Maybe Dark!Harry, having a different and more cynical perspective than Light!Harry, would recognize Fiona’s darker and manipulative side sooner. 

I think he would outright hate Charity just for being an Elder yet he would also feel the bleed of Harry’s feelings for her. Then when the truth came out about her murders and the extended gaslighting of Macy and Light!Harry, he’d feel smug about the fact that he hated her all along.

Dark!Harry is a very arrogant and controlling person himself. What if he simultaneously despises Light!Harry yet also feels ownership over him for simply being a part of himself? He would then feel enraged at both sisters for having the audacity to try to control and manipulate even some part of himself; someone who looks just like him.

In the same vein, his growing obsession with Macy would make him hate the Callahan sisters even more for hurting and manipulating someone he considers his.

Another child runs past her wearing a hat with ears on it and Sister Micheal shudders.  She’s already been subjected to a “theme park” that consisted of nothing but alligators and while she had no complaints about the reptiles themseilves, if another sunburned person wearing a “baseball” cap and a shirt proclaiming allegiance to either the “Seminoles” or the “Gators” or the “Dolphins” wanting to know what was underneath her wimple, so help her Jesus, she wasn’t holding back.

Clearly, the Lord had introduced her to judo with the clear purpose that she had a divine duty to knock out each and everyone of these tourists with her bare hands.

11. What does the most recent text that you sent say?Did you feed the dog? to my son.

20. Do you like your neighbors?Our house is on a corner lot so we only have one set of immediate neighbours, and we love them.

44. Trip to outer space or bottom of the ocean?Outer space, absolutely!

101. Do you type fast?Medium fast. I can go faster but then I have to go back and fix all the typos. (Also this was the hardest answer to type because I started consciously thinking about what my fingers were doing…)

It’s not that she thought the mission would be easy, but she definitely thought it would involve fewer trips to the ‘fresher.

Jyn doesn’t understand why her guts are so jumpy—she can swim, she’s spent more time on spaceships than off them in her life, why is the motion of a boat on liquid water any different—and then it lurches sideways, leaving her stomach behind, and she leaps for the tiny cubicle again.

Cassian isn’t nearly as bad off as she is, and he didn’t grow up on an ocean world. How unfair is that? she moans to herself, before he drops a poncho over her head and pushes her up the companionway ladder.

The wind slaps her in the face with hard pellets of rain as soon as her head shows above the deck, but the cold air is aggressively brisk and keeping her eyes on the dim grey line of the horizon (even if it’s moving too much) helps her body regain the sense of where it is in relation to the universe.

Cassian leans beside her on the rail, wet hair pasted to his forehead, and promises, “It’ll get better.”
